WebGPU | Durable Objects Español

Caution

The WebGPU API is only available in local development. You cannot deploy Durable Objects to Cloudflare that rely on the WebGPU API. See Workers AI for information on running machine learning models on the GPUs in Cloudflare's global network.

The WebGPU API allows you to use the GPU directly from JavaScript.

The WebGPU API is only accessible from within Durable Objects. You cannot use the WebGPU API from within Workers.

To use the WebGPU API in local development, enable the experimental and webgpu compatibility flags in the Wrangler configuration file of your Durable Object.

compatibility_flags = ["experimental", "webgpu"]
